El-P is the real deal. I've been to hundreds of shows and he's one of the few that really amazed me after-the-fact by just schmoozing with fans a bit in a way that felt incredibly genuine. Sounds dorky, but I'll never forget his attitude that night. Edit: This was in fucking IOWA no less. The thing people not from the midwest don't realize is that we KNOW we're from the midwest. We're not naive. We like good music too. When people like El-P show us love, it means that much more.

Great interview Kweli. I actually met EL-P back during a "I'll Sleep When You're Dead" tour show in Gainesville, FL. Pretty down to earth guy. I got a picture with him and an autograph for my Funcrusher Plus album copy. I still remember shaking his hand and saying "Thanks for all the music. Best of luck in everything you do. And best of luck with your label.". I could see on his face that the label comment registered as an empty compliment (He wasn't angry. He just sighed and said "Thanks".). I then shortly found out that Definitive Jux was to shut down. I also remember seeing Beezy from DEHH waiting for his turn in line behind me and EL complimenting their show (I had no idea about DEHH at the time). Good to see EL is still doing good after all these years (Healthwise, and musicially). Definitely looking forward to RTJ 4.

I met El-P in 2011 in Brooklyn. He was with Killer Mike. This is before RTJ and even RAP Music. I had no idea why they were hanging out but that was the beginning of a major run for both artists. Most importantly, El and Mike were both down to Earth dudes and were about the people. It's good to see people like that have success because you know it's well deserved.
@ilovemikerogers5 жыл бұрын
These dudes are so much of an influence on my growing up. I'm from ATL so I could have only dreamed Killer Mike would join all this later. Rawkus changed my life man. I'm not a rapper, DJ, anything, but that shit made me move to NYC with no job. I just wanted to be in the city and to be around people like this. Rage Against the Machine was my bigtime mind changing group growing up. Their first self titled album & DJ Shadow's Endtroducing are still my favorite albums ever made. When Zack appeared and dropped that shit on Lyricist Lounge it was so amazing to send me more into that world. It was the cross between both worlds for me. I always knew Zack worked with Roni Size, Shadow, El-P back then and only a few songs got out and I always wish I could have heard more. Props to Talib for asking that question. I grew up in ATL on 'Kast, Goodie Mob, Field Mob, LaFace Records, etc all that while also being obsessed with the 8 Steps to Perfection buggin' like Rwanda type NYC backpacker scene made Run The Jewels turn into the craziest group. In my imagination they'd only get together if I won the lottery and put that shit together lol. I may not always agree Talib but I'll always respect his opinions. I love how relevant El-P has always been. To me he's the Trent Reznor or Maynard James Keenan of hip hop, love it or hate you still have to respect it.

I'm a black man who's loved hip hop my entire life. El-P does not need to prove anything to me or anyone else. His legend status is certified by him being present at the foundations of this culture and working just as hard as anyone else in it since then.

RTJ, best thing to happen to hip hop since Public Enemy. Killer Mike should have been a household name way before but I'm glad him and El-P found each other and made the tightest shit this decade. Thanks guys, you brought me and my daughter something that brought us together musically

Still coming back to watch this video.. Been a big supporter of El since Co-Flo days, some of my best memories are of smoking my tires leaving school bumping patriotic flow off soundbombing 2 back in my senior year of high school.. I remember going to shows in detroit back in the day feeling like I was in on something good that not many knew about, because the venues were small, and now I am just happy to see Jaime and Mike doing arenas now.. If anyone deserves it, if there is anyone that has paid the dues, El is one of them.. cheers mf'r..

Elp you just said something that has needed to be said that is important and you said it with class without putting down others and just told the world the simple but effective way we all can get past this idea that we must support identity politics when your an artist or a fan. We are individuals and would be judged as such.
